ABSTRACT: Background
The imbalance between osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is not only the primary pathological feature but also a major contributor to the pathogenesis of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH). Cellular senescence is one of the main causes of imbalanced BMSCs differentiation. The purpose of this study was to reveal whether cellular senescence could participate in the progression of SONFH and the related mechanisms.Methods
The rat SONFH model was constructed, and rat BMSCs were extracted. Aging-related indicators were detected by SA-β-Gal staining, qRT-PCR and Western Blot experiments. Using H2O2 to construct a senescent cell model, and overexpressing and knocking down mi
